For a distribution board with a 65 kA SCCR requirement at 415 V, this breaker offers headroom of about 10 kA. That means in a crowded, warm enclosure the continuous current capability drops by about 6%, so the panel designer should check the actual ambient temperature at the breaker mounting location — not the overall room temperature — when loading the circuit. Dimensions are 101.6 mm wide, 130 mm tall, and 70 mm deep — a standard 4-pole MCCB footprint that fits Siemens SENTRON mounting plates and busbar systems. Front-face protection is IP40, so it is suitable for general indoor panel use but not washdown environments.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-4GE46-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 4-Pole, TM22","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-4GE46-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A, 4-pole, TM220 release, 75.6 kA at 415 V.
